right now, we are under 90 minutes away from a loose deadline. president obama placed blame on speaker boehner for putting the country on the edge of this cliff. >> what we have is a situation where these automatic spending cuts go into place. if we have raised revenue by the wealthy paying more, that would be sufficient to turn off what's called the sequester, the automatic spending cuts. that would have a better outlook for the economy long term. so far, congress has not been able to get it done not because they don't want to cooperate, but because it's been hard for speaker boehner and republican leader mcconnell to accept the fact that taxes on the wealthiest americans should go up a bit as part of an overall deficit package. >> i'm told we have new information coming to us from capitol hill, kelly o'donnell. you have been working the phones, e-mails and everything else. is there an update? >> there is. it doesn't look like a promising one. there's been a major setback in negotiations. majority leader harry reid has been telling fellow democr

bad on gay rights. this is a guy who's going to be in charge of ensuring open implementation takes place. he's has a negative record on that. not just talking about a former appointee. when it comes to iran, very weak. left of president obama when it comes to economic sanctions or imposing sanctions on tehran to prevent proliferation of nuclear weapons. and then finally our bilateral relationship with israel, not strong on that. so regardless of where you lie, pick your poison, it's a perfect storm for why he should not be sec-def. to use an army colloquialism, he's a no-go. >> is this a turning point for the republican party? we will get to that. >> have you been getting pushback from your party about the ad? >> no. the party is a broad spectrum. there are folks that we work with on the nonproliferation issue regarding iran. we were longtime supporters of legislation that was advocated by leadership in our party. congresswoman slatton was a big proponent of sanctions, also as far as our stance with our

>> exactly right. the step before that is harry reid is working on some bill that might get bipartisan support in the senate. president obama in that meeting apparently told them try and work something out. and reid left and made a statement last night, as did mcconnell, that they're going to try and work something out. the best-case scenario is that sometime tomorrow they are able to put it to the senate and then it quos to the house, and then there's a real bill that sounds like a compromise. it's not the grand bargain we were all looking for. it will be some kind of deal to stop going over the cliff. option two is what we're talking about here, that those two can't get a deal and they put something forward and everybody in the senate and subsequently hopefully in the house gets to say yea or no to it. you're on the record. if you go over the cliff, everybody know where is you stood in trying to prevent that from happening. >> do you think the average american, all of us, makes heads or tails -- >> n

in fact, the senate is voting right now. the house won't reconvene until noon, so we won't know anything until they get their hands on everything. >> congressional leaders hope send legislation to president obama meaning that consumers shouldn't notice any impact. with the latest, we're joined by karen travers in washington. >> good morning, paula and john. it's after midnight and while we technically have gone over the fiscal cliff, some last minute arm twisting and negotiations may have provided a parachute. don't stop popping the champagne just yet. after days of intense negotiations, the white house and senate republicans reached a deal. vice president biden went up to capitol hill to sell it to senate democrats. biden swooped in at the 11th hour to hammer out a way forward to senate republican leader mitch mckonld. the agreement would permanently extend bush tax cuts to those making under $400,000. and households making under $450,000. raise the estate tax at those valued at more than $5 million and extend unemployment
